Chapters

Like, if I do a modern story about a blind ballerina for Hallmark or for Amazon or for mgm, I can draw on reality. And I think when you can draw on truth to infuse these stories, even like a Love Romance in Chocolate, when you do that, it elevates the experience and then it gives your writers that much more to lean into as they begin to write the characters. Like in Love, Romance and Chocolate, which, again, yeah, it's one of my favorite movies that we've done in the Hallmark world. And yes, and Love, Romance and Chocolate Love on Safari are two of the most ever watched Hallmark movies. And they just play. They play literally all of the time.
